Mumbai, February 27: As the holy month of Ramadan (Ramzan) progresses, millions of Muslims across India are observing the daily fast (Roza), a practice central to the Islamic faith. On Friday, February 27, devotees will observe their ninth fast of Ramzan. Precise timing is essential during this period, as the daily schedule for Sehri and Iftar shifts by a few minutes each day based on the rising and setting of the sun in various geographical locations. Sehri refers to the pre-dawn meal consumed by Muslims before the start of the fast, which must be completed before the first light of dawn (Fajr). Iftar is the evening meal served at sunset to break the day-long fast, traditionally beginning with the consumption of dates and water.

The Significance of Ramadan

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic Hijri calendar and is considered the holiest month for Muslims worldwide. It commemorates the revelation of the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad. Beyond the physical act of abstaining from food and drink during daylight hours, the month emphasises spiritual growth, self-discipline, charity (Zakat), and increased prayer. In addition to the five daily prayers, many Muslims also perform Tarawih, special nightly prayers held in mosques throughout the month.

Punctuality and Community

The slight daily variations in timing - often just one or two minutes - occur because the Islamic calendar is lunar, and fasting is strictly tied to the solar cycle. Community leaders and health experts recommend a balanced Sehri consisting of slow-digesting carbohydrates and high-protein foods to maintain energy levels throughout the 13-to-14-hour fasting window.
